Looking at those final CGI shots, I'm again wondering if there are a pair of phaser arrays mounted on the rim of the main hull. In Sternbach's own sketches they're obviously sensors with the same recessed style as Voyager, but on the final CGI they look raised, like phasers.
Having phasers mounted on the rim would be an interesting -- if possibly superfluous -- idea.
